More than ever before it is important to have a visual representation attached to social networking sites. You may need a more traditional professional image for your website, resume or business career profile such as LinkedIn, while also wanting a nice variety of images to be placed throughout your Facebook, Instagram, Google +, and Twitter to showcase who you are.

To me, there is nothing more precious than the images I have of my dad, who is no longer living on this earth, doing what he did on a regular basis. Images of him working in his woodshop building toys for the orphans, meeting clients in his office, working on projects to improve the prisoners’ conditions in a 3rd world prison, delivering food to the widows, making his famous French fries and sitting on his lap in the old olive green rocking chair where he would read me a bedtime story; those are the images and memories I cherish!

Images sell! We now live in a visual culture as businesses. Photographs are a “universal language”. High definition images drive higher on-line engagement and sales. Articles with images increase overall views by 94%. It’s all about the images, 60% of consumers consider or contact a business after seeing an image. The quality of a product image is very important to 67% of consumers. A high-quality image is more important to consumers than a long description.
